Yeah, fuck Bamz for not passing new State laws all by himself! Fuck him for that! And his little constitution too.

We found out he's a man, not a god and a pragmatist, not a revolutionary. Whether you think he didn't fight hard enough or gave the opposition too many opportunities he's still light years ahead of the Republicans he ran against and more trustworthy than most Democrats. Given the divide between Americans and the tactics of the right I figure he's done OK. I hate we're still in Afghanistan, Gitmo, and over 150 other countries. I don't like unfettered snooping or coddling the financial class. But if I can get healthcare that takes care of my current and future medical needs I'll call him the best we could have asked for.

healthcare.gov is already working pretty well. we're all just crossing our fingers that the back end (info transfer to ins companies) isn't a clusterfuck about to happen.

my wish for new year's is that healthcare.gov is all smooth b sailing.

kiss your wife and kids and kick wingnut ass in '14.

Worse yet, if the nuclear launch codes were still set to 00000000, it would be a number she could <i>count</i> to!

Obama is not cynical. For that reason alone, he's the best we've had in decades.

I think the grinding wingnuttery critical derp kind of wore a lot of Dems down, hence the increase in negativity towards ol' Barry Bamz. Personally, I still think he's pretty terrific, and managed to get important shit done (ACA anyone?) despite an obviously obstructionist congress. So whateves, I'm a pie-eyed optimist, but I think we've got plenty of great president'ing in store for the next few years.
